| Eggplant Suce & Buckwheat Stuffing |
Eggplant or Aubergine? Eggplant is English and Aubergine is French, yet the British call it an Aubergine. I guess the word eggplant is simply North American.
This recipe was inspired by Becca at Amuse Your Bouche. I loved the recipe she posted the other day mainly because it reminded me of something my mother-in-law used to make which gave me the inspiration that allowed me to try and recreate a family recipe.
I had just read her Becca's post and knew there were 4 eggplants sitting in the refrigerator. My husband hates eggplants and since he was out of town, I took full advantage and made the rest of the family a memorable meal. The house smelled amazing and everyone loved the final dish.

This is another great way to cook eggplant (Or I should say Aubergine). I never thought of adding buckwheat, but I see why not? Sounds delish! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteYum, I love Aubergine, I've got a great sauce recipe for them that is perfect of risottos, but this looks fab. I've never thought of stuffing a pepper with that and grains. Great post!
ReplyDeleteOoh so glad I inspired you! :) This looks yummy, and I have some peppers in the fridge - maybe I'll try your version next :)
ReplyDeleteYummy!!!! Hey check out my page I made ya something :)
ReplyDeletehi ellen, very nice to know you! i love eggplants a lot and usually do it the chinese way of stir frying and also in ratatouille. This is lovely baking it with cheese and how appealing it looks. Oh over here, we call them eggplants too and also the name 'brinjal'.

ReplyDeleteEllen, This looks incredible!! I love eggplant and I’m sure it was fantastic with the buckwheat stuffing! Thanks for your comment about my neck…I have a chronic problem because of an old whiplash. I never know how to treat it….heat or cold! Have a great weekend!!
